The given diagram depicts the manufacturing process for bricks used in the construction sector.

Overall, there are seven stages in the process, beginning with the digging up of clay and
culminating in delivery.

To begin, the clay used to make the bricks is dug up from the ground by a large digger. This
clay is then placed onto a metal grid, which is used to break up the clay into smaller pieces. A
roller assists in this process. Following this, sand and water are added to the clay, and this
mixture is turned into bricks by either placing it into a mould or using a wire cutter. Next, these
bricks are placed in an oven to dry for 24 – 48 hours.

In the subsequent stage, the bricks go through a heating and cooling process. They are heated
in a kiln at a moderate and then a high temperature (ranging from 200c to 1300c), followed by a
cooling process in a chamber for 2 – 3 days. Finally, the bricks are packed and delivered to their
destinations.
